The ABB S203P-Z16 is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker with a Z-characteristic curve rated at 16 A. The Z-curve trips between 2.5× and 4× In, designed for protection of sensitive electronic loads — semiconductor circuits, PLC power supplies, instrumentation loops — where standard B- or C-curves would nuisance-trip on inrush. The 480Y/277 VAC rating covers 3-phase wye systems common in North American commercial and industrial panels.
